-How about a taste?
Mariana's expectant eyes fell on Leopoldo and she smiled happily. She wanted to see what expression
Leopoldo would have after eating the dish, satisfied or unsatisfied.
Leopoldo looked at the woman next to him and tried to calm himself. He looked at her first and then
turned his full attention back to the plate in front of him.
Looking at the plate, it was generally good.
-It's ready to eat," Mariana looked at the man and reminded him. The table was full of plates, how could
they be eaten just by looking at them? She had done it with her heart, Leopoldo had to eat it.
Without changing his face, Leopoldo picked up his chopsticks.
He picked up a piece of the roast pork in front of him and carefully measured its salt content. It was at
times like this that you had to keep your eyes open to see it clearly. Depending on the amount of salt,
one would choose how much milk tea to drink.
After looking around for a while, Leopold held his breath before preparing to eat the meat.
When the meat reached his mouth, Leopold, who was still pretending that nothing had happened, sent
him a piece of meat. He expected it to be particularly difficult to eat, but, to his surprise, it tasted
surprisingly good.
Leopoldo chewed the meat in his mouth and looked at Mariana in surprise.
-Does it taste good?
Mariana carefully gauged Leopoldo's expression, her eyes fixed on him. The braised pork she made
with her own hands certainly wouldn't taste bad.
Just looking at Leopoldo, she could tell.
-First time? -Leopoldo mentally sighed in relief, feeling incredulous.
If Mariana's culinary skills were always like this, he could expect a good life. But the fear was that
Mariana's culinary skills had ups and downs and there was no way to proceed steadily.
-Yes," Mariana nodded and perked up when she saw the man's expression.
She didn't need ostentatious compliments, it was enough to see the expression on the face of the
person tasting the food. Good food could not be faked. It used to be a happy feeling born from the
heart.
-You have a good talent," Leopoldo took the floor, not forgetting to pour a piece into Mariana's bowl.
Naturally, a good dish is meant to be shared by two people. It had been a long time since such a
moving scene had taken place in the dining room of the Durán family. The butler who was watching by
her side was moved to tears.
The two of them were very enviable.
Mariana was about to eat the meat when her stomach boiled. She hurriedly got up from her position
and hurried in the direction of the sink. Leopoldo observed the appearance and hurried over as well.
Mariana felt a pang of nausea and wondered what was going on.
-Mariana, is everything all right? -Leopoldo approached the door and asked worriedly.
Mariana leaned against the door and wiped her mouth.
-It's okay, I'll wash my hands and come right back.
Leopoldo was relieved to see the woman answer that she was fine.
-Okay.
With a slight sigh of relief, Leopoldo's heart sank and he took a step back.
Standing in front of the mirror, Mariana looked at herself in it and pondered for a while.
-Vomiting? It can't be... -she thought, incredulous.
It would have been a good time to guess.
Mariana leaned against the door and counted the days. If she counted the days, the moment had been
postponed for a week. She did the math and her heart gave her a little "flip".
-Young master, does the lady have one? -The housekeeper could not help but guess at Mariana's
appearance.
This behavior was too obvious.
Leopoldo's heart skipped a beat as he received a gesture from the butler. Yes, indeed, how had he not
considered it in the first place? Realizing this, he looked at the butler next to him and felt his heart skip
a beat.
Considering the last time they had worked with Noe Cantero, it seemed like the right time.
-Ma'am, how are you? -The housekeeper asked Mariana politely with concern. Actually, her eyes fell on
Mariana, and for a moment there was a slight hidden excitement.
Seeing the butler's expression, a shiver ran through Mariana's body.
-Why are you looking at me like that? -Mariana looked at the housekeeper and spoke nervously within
herself to ask the other party. She also wanted to know exactly why the housekeeper was looking at
her like that.
Surprised looks always made Mariana uncomfortable.
-Sorry, ma'am.
Realizing his discourtesy, the butler was quick to apologize. It would be a blessing for the whole family
that the lady was pregnant.
The steward was supposed to rejoice over such a good thing.
Mariana cast a glance the other way, pulled out a piece of paper to wipe the corners of her lips, and
prepared to take a sip of the soup. But as soon as she smelled the soup, her stomach couldn't help but
open her mouth to vomit again.
Her stomach was too sensitive.
Mariana was busy covering her mouth, then she hurriedly left the table. She didn't know what was
wrong with her. Everything she ate, she threw up.
Leopoldo looked at the woman out of the corner of his eye and his eyes lit up with a little hope.
If it really was as the housekeeper said, Mariana was most likely pregnant.
-Mariana, how long was your last month?
Leopoldo was so immersed in joy that he spoke directly to ask her. He wanted to know when was the
last month of her period.
That way, there would be a figure to compare.
As soon as she heard this question, Mariana gave the other party a white look without good grace, her
eyes full of hatred with a slight resentment.
-There is nothing wrong, why are you asking this?
-What do you think? -Leopold's eyes rested on the woman's body, full of compassion.
It would be great if it were so.
-You...
Mariana was silent for a moment and reacted instantly. It seemed that Leopoldo was not asking this
question without any purpose. She calculated that it had already been postponed for a week.
What does postponing mean?
Mariana's mind was racing, the belief in her head had been discharged and she reacted. That's right,
Leopoldo was asking her if she was pregnant. Pregnant? This was too terrible.
-No, it couldn't be. My days are not always on time," Mariana looked away and denied his speculations.
She was often not punctual, so Leopoldo's suspicions could not be fulfilled.
-We'll go to the hospital and then we'll find out.
Leopold's heart would not die, he had to find out if that was what he thought or not. Anyway, the results
would basically be proven in seven days.
Now, it had already been a long time.
-No, no, I don't want to go to a place like the hospital.
Mariana gritted her teeth, her heart rebelling. At times like this, she was determined not to give in and
listen to Leopoldo's words and go to the hospital.
She didn't want to check and she didn't have to.
-You're not going? -Leopoldo looked at the woman and asked rhetorically.
His eyes were full of cruelty and when Mariana saw them, she was shocked.
Mariana's heart thudded and she got a little scared.
-No!
She didn't even think about it and flatly rejected the other person. But the next moment, Leopoldo took
a step forward and lifted his whole body.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
